"Thankful for the telehealth lactation service"

I was recently seen by the Telehealth lactation service. Sam was the lovely lactation consultant who seen me on two occasions and wow was I impressed! I was initially skeptical on how someone would be able to help me with breastfeeding via video but I was wrong! With the help from my partner to manoeuvre the phone so Sam could see exactly how I was breastfeeding, she was able to provide me with some techniques changes, support and a lot of reassurance that my baby and I could do this! After the first session, I received an email from Sam with what we had discussed (I was extremely thankful for this, newborn = tired Mummy who forgets things). I worked hard with my baby to ensure we were consistent with how we were feeding and had Sam’s tips close by each time in case I had a brain blank on what it was she suggested I try. Within a few days things were looking up and I had confidence that we could in fact get this breastfeeding thing working for both Bub and I. I cannot thank Sam enough for her guidance and support, the genuine care she has for her patients and the passion to help really shines through. You are one in a million Sam! Thank you.
